Wow! Talk about an image with impact! The skull as a not too subtle reminder of the danger of the desert, the shifting sands, the line of camels headed off in the distance and the show-off sky all combine to touch the soul. I'm in awe...

Happy for you, Maitham. CONGRATZ on the Finalist and it looks all set on its journey towards that GP Win, Good luck. By the way, it is an extreme rarity when most all of the judges offer comments on an image, which they have here.

Congratulations! You’re the kind of person who makes the world a better, brighter place…You worked hard for this, you made it happen, and you have a right to be proud. So enjoy these satisfying moments; you deserve every one! Merna

The moment I opened this one I knew it had to be a winner. Simply breathtaking. Congratulations Maitham

I am sorry to respond so late to this fantastic win. You must have died and gone to heaven when this image appeared on your camera or computer. The tones moving from dark to light lead the viewer through this dramatic scene. This is so well deserving of the grand prize. Congratulations!
